It is highly recommended to install using a clean chroot (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_Clean_Chroot).

+

You can build either plex package from source, or use the unofficial [[Unofficial_User_Repositories#alucryd|alucryd]] repository providing both regular {{AUR|plex-home-theater}} and nightlies of {{AUR|plex-home-theater-git}}.

−

Install the package from [[AUR]]: {{AUR|plexhometheater-git}}. If GNOME is installed, the dependent package bluez will conflict with GNOME's dependency of bluez4; in this case edit the PKGBUILD to depend on bluez4 instead of bluez.

Notes: This article doesn't offer more information than an entry in List of Applications, although I think we'd need to create a new section for this kind of applications. This could be merged along with Streaming media. (Discuss in Talk:Plex#)

Packages available in AUR

Plex Media Server (PMS)

Installation

Operation

To start plex, run sudo systemctl start plexmediaserver. Use sudo systemctl enable plexmediaserver to have it start on startup. Then go to (http://localhost:32400/manage) to set up plex. If you want to add media folders in your home directory you may get a permissions issue. chmod 775 ~/ and usermod -a -G users plex to allow plex to access your files.
